Background: The aim of this qualitative study was identifying the effective factors and components in transferring learning to the work environment in in-service training of nurses in hospitals affiliated to the Social Security Organization.

Materials and methods: The  method was exploratory research and Data analysis was fundamental.

The sample includes 35 members of hospital supervisor, head nurses, master manager of education and academic professors who work and expert in training transfer. Data were collected by open interview until theoretical saturation was reached. Open and semi-structured interviews were used to collect information and simultaneous analyses of the interview were conducted using open, axial and selective coding. The obtained model was validated by all 35 people and the learning transfer model was developed. Finally, using the feedback method of the participants and the analyst triangulation technique, the validity of the analysis was ensured. In order to measure the reliability of the coding, re-test reliability methods and intra-subject agreement were used.
Results: The factors affecting training transfer could be in 4 dimensions, including personal factors, educational factors, organizational factors and meta-organizational or environment factors.
Conclusion: The results showed this fact that in educational performance process in hospital and achieve the efficiency and effectiveness of education in nurses’ performance , we must consider factors affecting training transfer. Because the lack of attention to these factors influencing the transfer process has shown that learning is forgotten over time and eventually a small percentage is transferred to the workplace and a lot of costs are imposed on the hospital without any benefit.

Keywords: Training transfer, Training in service, Nurses training, Social security organization.
